Globe*Trotter, Xenolth's latest open-source project, is basically an open-source guestmap. Instead of your users simply tacking their personal regards onto the end of a long list of people, they can mark where they live on a map and then add any personal comments they have. It benefits your visitors because they can easily read other's comments and add their remarks in a fun and novel way. It also benefits you, the webmaster, because more people will be likely to give you feedback and you will be able to see where your visitors are!

However, as the project expands the uses for Globe*Trotter multiply. Such uses include a teaching tool and product demo.

We also have a free (with no adds!) hosted version of Globe*Trotter available!

Great product. I've been looking for a good user map system for a while now and finally stumbled upon Globe*Trotter. It was easy to go in and modify the code. it does exactly what I hoped it would do. I can't wait to see what future releases hold in store.
